Call for community driven programs in Shaw:
Pleasant Plains Workshop seeks fun, creative and community-focused projects and programming to coincide with “What’s Going On: Voices of Shaw”, a public art project that examines and celebrates the micro-cultures of Shaw through the voices and diverse lens of the community.
The selected projects set within the public or shared spaces, should be community focused, site-specific and each will have an engagement element. Additionally, the activities should have a commonality of inclusion, sharing and social interaction.
Examples of programming include but are not limited to: walking tours (traditional or alternative), cooking classes/food events, performances (dance, theater, etc), panel discussions, fashion shows, dance parties, community meetings, cultural celebrations/shocases, and film screenings.
Selected programs will be awarded up to $250 / each.
